Dr Neghal Kandiyil

I am married with three children who occupy most of my personal time.

I am a consultant radiologist, practicing full time in the University Hospitals of Leicester NHS Trust, with a subspecialty interest in vascular radiology. Prior to specialising in radiology I undertook and completed my basic and surgical training in Leeds University Teaching Hospitals, Yorkshire. This allowed me to complete my Membership of the Royal College of Surgeons. I then went on to do a PhD in Nottingham University in vascular surgery and radiological sciences. My general and subspecialty interventional radiology training was completed in Leicestershire and this included vascular radiology to a fellowship level. I have an active interest in research with vascular radiology and am involved in a number of trials. My areas of interest and expertise include CT and MRI imaging, Ultrasound and interventions in acute and chronic diseases of the blood vessels. I regularly perform interventions to open arterial blockages-angioplasty and stenting, block leaking or abnormal blood vessels, such as embolisation in vascular malformations-AVM’s, varicoceles, tumours, trauma, aneurysm stenting and maintenance of dialysis fistula access. I also perform chemotherapy/embolisation of liver tumours, and vascular line access. I am also fully accredited in performing cardiac coronary CT.
